I have the Early tiger (ie the one after the Mid) and the sequence in the manual is four 5mm bars, eight 4mm bars, four 5mm bars.

I'm sure one of the Mid Tiger owners will be along soon to confirm the sequence for that particular model.

Hi Mark

Your Tigers suspension bars should be front 2 at 5mm, next 4 at 4mm, and last 2 at 5mm, for each side. The thicker rods are to take the weight of the motors and batteries.

Hope this helps
